The Hong Kong National Cricket team is run by the Hong Kong Cricket Association, which became an Associate member with the International Cricket Council in 1969. The team first played their International game during the 2004 Asia Cup. Cricket was first introduced in Hong Kong in 1841 during the British colonial rule, but Hong Kong played its first-ever recorded fixture in 1866 against Shanghai. However, in 1892, a steamship returning from Shanghai sank, resulting in the loss of most of the team. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, the Asian side participated in various ICC and ACC qualifying tournaments before reaching the final of the ACC Trophy in 2000. Four years later, they played their maiden ODI against Bangladesh in the Asia Cup of 2004. In the 2014 World T20, Hong Kong bagged a sensational victory when they upset Bangladesh during a group stage game. They failed to qualify for the 2015 Cricket World Cup by a close margin, but were among the teams that featured in the 2016 World T20 in India. Over the years, the only cricketing thing that fans can relate to Hong Kong is a famous tournament called the Hong Kong Cricket Sixes. The event, which is a six-a-side tournament, has been held since 1993. Teams from major Test nations participate in the tournament and over the years, a large number of cricket legends have participated in it. Notably, the Hong Kong men's team almost secured a bronze medal at the 2014 Asian Games. The team missed out on it after losing their bronze medal match to Bangladesh. Hong Kong holds the record for the highest ODI partnership for any wicket by an associate nation. It happened during the 2018 Asia Cup when Nizakat Khan and Anshuman Rath stitched together an opening stand of 174 runs against India. Interestingly, ex-Australian cricketer Ryan Campbell became the oldest player to make his T20I debut at 44 years and 30 days when he turned up for Hong Kong in the 2016 T20 WC.
